Hello everybody and welcome to True Crime time for Saturday, March 14, 2026. And I am Cindy Overton.
Woody Overton
And I'm Woody Overton.
Cindy Overton
Just kidding. He is out of town so y' all are getting used to us riding solo and believe me, it's not intentional and the other day I actually asked Woody, I was like, am I just not going to be on the show anymore with you? And I actually just said, am I just not going to be on the show anymore? And I meant with him. And he was like, why would you ask that? It's because we are going back and forth with each other basically doing tag, you're it and you know, one person recording and the other person is taking care of other business. But I am here today and on this day in history. In 1938, Coleman W. Avery, who was a member of the Supreme Court of Ohio, murdered his wife Sarah Loving, and then he killed himself in their mansion. At the time, newspapers reported that the murder could have been the result of increasing stress regarding financial issues. He also had had a recent heart attack. He had severe depression and there were complications with his work as an attorney. So although we look at mental health as, you know, an issue that seems to becoming more prevalent now, I think just as Woody always tells me, I always ask Woody like, is there just more crime now? And he was like, no, we just hear about it more, you know, it's reported more. We have instant, instant information. And so unfortunately, you know, people's mental health has always been an issue and it definitely was not spoken about in 1938 like it is today. So with that being said, if anyone, you know, needs to talk or vent or get help, please find somebody and to, you know, to talk to. And it's very important that you have self care, you do things for yourself. You find some way to have some sort of outlet in your life. And I am preaching to the choir with that one. But I'm going to continue. So yesterday you were blessed with hearing about our new sponsor. They are our official sponsor of real life, real crime. And I have watched big Js grow from the food truck that it was. And he was always at the Clinton courthouse when W.L. and I did school and work at Mr. Lee's at my father in law's office, that's on lawyers row here in Clinton at the courthouse. And he always had a huge line, people waiting for him to open, people waiting for, you know, anything. And any often or if not always, he sold out. They have a well greased machine over there. Amy, his wife and partner, very much a husband and wife team, exactly the way Woody and I are. She is the one that actually had the restaurant experience and she comes from a prominent restaurant and years of experience. I'll just say that. So when you go there, you're going to get Quality food, you're going to get quality service. And we would not have even thought about them being our official sponsor if it wasn't something that Woody and I truly believed in. And we would not get on here and say, hey, you need to drive to Clinton for this destination location if we did not think it was worth your drive. We have always done everything that we can to make things right and good for our lifers. And in fact, just reminiscent if you're new, we had a sold out show at the House of Blues in New Orleans and we went in to buy our personal tickets for our family because the way the event was, we did not want to split funds and worry about who was giving away tickets for what and whatever. So we went and personally bought the tickets. And when I saw the fees and that we were not told about the amount of fees that we would have, although I did ask what fees would be associated with this, the House of Blues did not communicate those effectively to me. So we canceled the show. We lost a lot of money because of it. And we are not going to ask someone to pay an exorbitant amount of fees to come see, you know, Woody live. Which is why we're very particular about the venues that we use or the places and the cities that we go to. It helps that where we go, we have a personal relationship with the venues, which helps us to cut down on the fees. If we were to say, let's do a show in Dallas, we are going to have to go through a seatgeek or a whatever, you know, ticketing agency, unless we know the people personally. And we're not going to ask people to go to a venue when we don't know the people personally. So I know that sounds restricting, but that's the, that's the truth. And to bring it back to my point, if we are asking you or telling you that you need to come to a place, please trust that you need to come to this place. Um, there's something for everyone on the menu. I know they, they spent a lot of time talking about it yesterday, but I don't think that you'll actually get it until you experience it. Woody would equate that to a migraine, although this would be quite the opposite of a migraine. You don't fully understand until you have one. And I think that that is, I know that is the case with big Js. So with that being said, I'm going to get straight down to news and I am literally clicking on things as I received them from Woody. So I have no idea what I'm fixing to say to you. But we're going to start off with
Woody Overton
it's time for family matters.
Cindy Overton
Okay, I've got a huge warning for this one. This is unlike anything I've ever heard before. I went to start it off with a quote of the defendant. Let me just put it that way. I'm going to just start off with this. This is what the defendant in a case said. If I didn't defend my life, I would have been dead. I'm sorry it happened, but I'm glad I lived. Last sentence of the quote, I'm sorry I dismembered him. So let me tell you what actually happened. We have a 23 year old Egyptian born model named Omaima Nelson. And she was tried for murdering, dismembering and cannibalizing her wealthy older husband. She met her older husband whose name was Bill while playing at a pool bar in Huntington Beach. Bill was a 56 year old pilot. This was back in October of 1991. Now police did in their investigation they found out that Omaima or Omaima frequently went to bars and picked up older men. That's just what they did. That's just what she did. But apparently Bill and her connection was electric and after just a few days they decided to get married. But it did not take long for bad things to start happening. So Omaima was staying at Bill's Orange beach apartment on November 28th of 1991. Now this is less than a month after they got married and Bill tied her to the bed as part of a BDSM sex game. Omaima panicked. She said in a testimony that her she was just scared because her new husband ignored her pleas to stop and he continued to assault her. She suffered female genital mutilation as a child and she said she found sex traumatic and painful. She was dressed in a red dress and red boots and she managed to break free of her restraints and she struck Bill over the head with a lamp. Then she began to stab him with scissors and that wasn't enough. She brutally beat him with an iron. So police find out. Investigator get the body. The investigation happens and the autopsy reports that there was ligature marks on Bill's wrist suggesting she had also restrained her husband before murdering him. Omaymah or oh my ma, I think I'm teeter tottering between the two. I apologize. It's Omaima. Omaima described to her psychologist that she entered a trance like state over the next 12 hours and over the next 12 hours is when she dismembered Bill's body, boiled various body parts, including his hands and head. Just days earlier, a home video showed the couple enjoying family time in their home with relatives, and the footage was presented to the jury before Omaima's parole was rejected in 2011 by Orange county prosecutors. Now, there's also word on the street is she also castrated Bill? Apparently. Speculation is she did this because for revenge of the sexual assaults. She claimed that she dismembered her husband to dispose of the evidence. She boiled his hands to destroy his fingerprints. Then she mixed his flesh with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving and threw it into the garbage disposal, which neighbors couldn't figure it out, but they heard the garbage disposal running non stop for two days now. After the murder, Omaima was seen behind the wheel of her husband's red Corvette, which was discovered with black garbage bags on the front seat packed with dismembered body parts. A video was captured just after the police arrived, and it revealed that an officer was shocked at uncovering organs in one of the bags. The trail of evidence led detectives to the appalling scene at the couple's flat, where it was believed Omaima had restrained her husband on the bed and butchered him. Two major pieces of proof in the case were a wooden knife and a butcher's cleaver. Police also found strips of flesh cooked in a soup pot in the freezer, Bill's hands in a deep fat fryer, and a cooler stuffed with his preserved head. Although Bill weighed approximately 230 pounds, only 150 pounds of his body was recovered. His genitals were among those body parts not found. I'm assuming they went through the garbage disposal. Later, Omaima confessed to her psychiatrist she had cooked Bill's ribs and covered them in barbecue sauce. But then she later denied that. I guess she realized how bad that sounded. She was arrested on December 2 when she was driving the red Corvette and soliciting her boyfriends to help her dispose of his dismembered corpse. Police ended up pulling her over, and like I said before, the black garbage bags were stuffed with his organs and they were found in the car along with a boot.

I'm gonna be honest, when sleep's off, everything is off. And most of the stuff people recommend either doesn't work or leaves you feeling foggy the next morning. That's why I want to tell you about Mood.com. mood is an online destination for federally legal hemp derived cannabis grown on small, pesticide free family run farms right here in the us. And yes, a lot of people don't realize this. It's completely legal to buy online and it ships discreetly straight to your door. Mood makes products for different moments and different vibes. Gummies, flour, edibles, pre rolls, and more. Whether you're trying to wind down, focus, relax, or just shut your brain off at night, the one I keep coming back to is their Sleepy Time Advanced gummies. These aren't about getting blasted. They're designed to help your mind slow down and your body relax so your sleep actually calms. And for most people, it kicks in in just about 15 minutes. What makes them different is how Mood combines federally legal THC with other cannaboids and functional ingredients so you're not just guessing how something's going to make you feel. It's intentional. And if gummies aren't your thing, moodoo also has flour, pre rolls, bakery treats and beverages all built around how you want to feel. Not some one size fits all approach.

I'm not big on New Year's resolutions, and I don't sit around making promises myself I'm not going to keep. But I do believe in starting the year doing things right. That means sleeping when I can, eating decent, staying active and paying attention when something feels off. And for a lot of people, especially women, feeling tired or foggy at the start of the year gets written off as stress or burnout when low iron can actually be part of the problem. Iron deficiency affects one in three adults, and the symptoms don't always jump out at you. It can show up as constant fatigue even when you're sleeping enough, brain fog or trouble concentrating, frequent headaches, irritability or brittle nails and hair breakage. When iron levels are low, your body has to work harder to deliver oxygen and that can impact your energy, focus, mood and physical performance. Performance an iron deficiency can exist long before anything turns into anemia, which means you can feel it well before it shows up on paper. That's why I recommend Citarol from Farming Nutra Citrol is a premium iron supplement powered by the patented Sucrosomia technology. This technology helps your body absorb iron three to four times more effectively than standard iron supplements without the common stomach issues people complain about like nausea and constipation. It's clinically proven to be comparable to IV iron and it's made with just two main ingredients, 30 milligrams of sucrosomil iron and vitamin C in a convenient once a day capsule. You can take any time with or without food. Sideroll is backed by 20 years of research, 150 plus clinical studies, and is trusted by more than 2 million people worldwide. It's the number one supplement brand in Italy and it's used in over 90 countries. If you're starting the year and you're still feeling tired or foggy despite doing the right things, you're not alone and this might be the support your body needs.

RLRC support is available 247 with VRBoCare. We're here day or night, ready whenever you need help because a great trip starts with the right support. Now what's scary is that she's actually eligible for parole and luckily she's twice been denied parole due to her violent behavior since entering prison. She actually assaulted a prison guard during one of those bad behaviors. California's parole board said commissioners found Omaima unpredictable and a serious threat to public safety. Well, she's actually re eligible for release this year, so. Well, let's hope she does not get that beast mode. We're going to go to Georgia Avondale Estates, Georgia and a resident of Avondale Estates made a horrible, gruesome discovery over the weekend. Neighbors were upset to hear that someone had cut off the heads of several birds and left them floating in the water of Avondale Lake. Patrick Bryant, who's the city manager of Avondale Estates, confirms that a resident discovered two bags of beheaded birds in the lake on Sunday afternoon and Bryant said they were floating in the lake, they found a garbage sack that contained bird carcasses of what appeared to be old feed. My understanding is that it was chickens and perhaps a singular duck included with the chickens. Deanna Cawthon calls the park a place of refuge and safety, and she wonders why anyone would do something so awful. Cawthon goes on to say, hearing that is pretty disturbing and scary. I've been coming here for about 25 years. I don't think I've ever heard of anything that disturbing in all the years I've been here. Out of all of the things you could do, why do that? Obviously, that's not something that just happened. Somebody deliberately did that. So as of right now, we don't know who did it or how the carcasses ended up there or anything along those lines. We just know what happened. And the birds were discovered and they were picked up by DeKalb County Animal Control. The remains were. And a spokesperson said that it appeared, you know, obviously it appears that someone recently dumped the carcasses. Okay, so Bryant said it does not appear any crimes were committed beyond littering. Bryant also said said that it does not appear any crimes were committed beyond littering. And he also said, though unfortunate, unless this becomes a recurring thing, our investigation in this matter is over.

So we're going to stay in Georgia, but we're going to move on over to Kennesaw. And we have a mom that was arrested after leaving her three young children in a car while she went shopping. Cobb county Police reported that three children, ages 2, 5 and 7, were left unattended in a vehicle at Town Center Mall on Monday while their mother shopped. Based on the number of YouTube videos one of the children watched, investigators estimate that the siblings were alone for over an hour. The situation was discovered when a bystander spotted the two year old wandering through the parking lot and, thank goodness, called 91 1. A local DJ, DJ Webb, was in the parking lot of Town Center Mall just after noon on Monday when he noticed the little girl walking around the parking lot. He didn't see any adults nearby. He looked at the car she had gotten out of and saw two young boys in the front seat watching videos. He knocked on the window and he said their little sister was outside. He told them their little sister is outside. One of the boys got out and he got his little sister sitting on the curb crying. He picked her up and said he was babysitting and carried her back to the car. D.J. webb was, thank goodness, worried about the children and called 91 1. We're talking about a 2, 5 and 7 year old who should not be left unsupervised, especially in a busy parking lot like a mall. That's very dangerous no matter how old the kids are. So to leave them in an unoccupied vehicle, especially on a warm day. And that was actually said by Cobb county police officer Aaron Wilson. D.J. webb says he wasn't even planning to be at that mall Monday. He believes God put him there for a reason, to make sure those children were okay. So police were able to make contact with the mother who was inside the mall. The mother, 42 year old Angela Weichman, was arrested and charged with three counts of reckless conduct. I hope those children have good family members to go to. And thanks to DJ Webb for doing the right thing. There's actually video posted online about, you know, showing the little girl out of the vehicle. And this video is 2 minutes and 31 seconds long. And I have not watched it, but I can imagine, I mean, where the little girl is in this video. It's not like on the side of the parking lot like you would walk, you know, close to the cars that are parked. She is like in the middle of, of the driving area and the car like she's just walking down the middle of it. Basically.

This is a little bit of vigilante justice here. It's A Tennessee woman is behind bars after shooting a man more than a dozen times after learning he had been accused of sexually assaulting a child that she's related to. Memphis police were out on patrol on February 26th and they came across an unresponsive man who was lying in the middle of the road around 2am the man was identified as no Rincon and he had been dead for a while after being shot 14 times, including once in the head. Police learned that rincon, who was 58 years old, had been staying with Alishon Torres mother, but that he left around 1am to go to the store. The mother said that she later started receiving calls from Torres, who's 18, from Rincon's phone. Investigators gave no indication of what those phone calls were related to, what they entailed, what the conversations were. But Torres was tracked down and arrested on Thursday, March 5 for first degree murder. But while speaking with police, she said that a five year old girl and her family had accused Rincon of touching them in a sexual manner. Three to four weeks earlier, police said that Torres and Rincon crossed paths as he was driving towards the store to pick up milk and rice, and she asked him if she could use his phone. And that's when she confronted him about the girl's allegations. Now, cops claim that soon after is when she started firing into Rickon's van. And apparently she told investigators she actually took a picture of the bloody crime scene before pulling Rincon out of the driver's seat and onto the street. She also told police she drove the van to an abandoned house where she repainted it. She said that she then left the vehicle at an apartment complex with her boyfriend, who she insisted was not involved and knew nothing about the killing. Relatives ended up at the scene and identified the body. Police found a gun as it fell out of Torres's handbag, and she admitted it was one of two guns she used in the shooting. Torres told investigators she sold or gave the other gun away that was used to kill Rincon. So Torres is also charged with employing a firearm in the commission of a felony and tampering with evidence. And she is being held as the investigation into what transpired is ongoing. Detectives have asked anyone with information about the case to contact the Memphis Police Department's homicide division as the case moves towards prosecution. Now, jail records indicate that Torres is actually a citizen of Honduras, and U.S. immigrations and Customs Enforcement has asked Tennessee officials to hold on to her until they can take custody of her at a later date. So, obviously, what should have happened is if what I'm about to say, if you know of a young person who is being exploited or are the victim of a crime, you are urged to report it to your local FBI field office, which is 1-800- call FBI. You can actually send tips to a tip line@tips FBI.gov you do not go get two guns and just start shooting them and then take their. Push them out of their vehicle and then take the vehicle and paint it and then take it and drive it to an apartment complex, I don't think that's the right thing to do.

We're going to Vegas. And a Canadian tourist is accused of stealing and torturing a flamingo at a Las Vegas strip hotel, and he must remain in the area as his criminal proceedings play out. Mitchell Fairbarn, who's 33 years old, is from Ontario, Canada, and he's facing four counts of felony animal abuse for allegedly injuring a bird at the Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. On March 3, an attorney appeared on Fairbarn's behalf during his initial appearance in Las Vegas Justice Court on Monday morning. And Las Vegas Justice Court judge Harmony Letizia told Fairbairn's attorney she expected Fairbairn to be present in her courtroom. Police reviewed surveillance footage, which they said showed Fairbairn entering the bird habitat and grabbing a bird named Peachy. Fairbairn then injured other animals in the process, including pinning down a second bird and not letting it escape. The video then shows Fairbairn returning to his hotel room with an animal. Now, Fairbairn allegedly admitted to police that he trespassed into the bird habitat after seeing a flamingo in distress. He was going in to save it. I'm quite positive, he told police he popped the bird's wing into place because I guess now Fairbairn's a. A veterinarian and I hurt my shoulder this morning, and maybe he can come pop that back into place for me. On Fairbarn's phone, police located several photos and videos of him with the animal, including, obviously, him torturing it. In one video, Fairbarn indicated he was taking the bird home. The Las Vegas Justice Court redacted Fairbairn's face and the photos and still and the still images from the videos. When fulfilling a public records request, Animal Control actually says that Fairbairn did not put the wing back in place. It actually pulled the wing out of the bird's body. And they also go on to say that many other birds were injured. During a probable cause hearing. After his arrest, Las Vegas Justice Court judge Susan Baucom set bail at $12,000 and ordered Fairbarn to have no animals in his possession and to surrender his passport. She also ordered him to wear a GPS monitor. On Monday, Letizia warned Fairbarn's attorney that she would send him to jail should he violate any terms of his release if he has a single violation while he's out of jail. And electronic monitoring that was set by the judge in initial appearance court. He is going to be remanded without bail in this case, she warned.

Going to Michigan for this story. And a Michigan man has been convicted of murdering his wife whose body was found in a rural farm tank in 2024. And her body was found three years after she disappeared. The trial presented evidence of a troubled marriage between Dee and Del Warner. And though defense attorneys highlighted the absence of physical evidence connecting him to her death, the high profile disappearance had previously been featured on true crime podcasts and television and public interest was high. And there were signs everywhere that said justice for Dee. And her face is, you know, on the sign and they're showing a bumper sticker in this these signs appeared across Lanowee County, 70 miles southwest of Detroit. Dale Warner was found guilty of second degree murder and and tampering with evidence. Now, Dee was a mother of five and she ran a trucking company and a farming business and she was 52 years old, and she was last seen on the morning of April 25, 2021. She was on a road in Franklin Township, south of Detroit, the last time she was seen. Dale Warner was charged with murder more than two years later, although investigators still had not found a body. And in 2024, her remains were discovered inside a fertilizer tank. There was a handwritten tag on the side of the tank that said out of service, and it also said, do not fill. An autopsy showed Dee Warner was strangled and had suffered blunt force trauma. Prosecutor Jackie Weiss told jurors that Dale Warner could have called 911 and said, I screwed up when he realized what he had done. But instead he decided that he would tape d Warner's mouth and nose so she could not breathe. Wise goes on to say those were all conscious decisions. Now, the defense attorney, Mary Chartier or I don't know how they would say that up north it's C h a r t I e r said there was plenty of reasonable doubt, noting that Dale had regularly talked to investigators during the search and denied hurting his wife. He worked in agriculture and trucking. The defense attorney told the jury, you are not here to judge Mr. Warner as a husband. You may think he was a bad husband and not a very attentive husband, whatever you may think of him. But no matter the defense that he had, he was convicted of murdering his wife. And thank goodness that there was a conviction and they. They found the body and the investigation continued and they didn't give up. Well, now we're going to Defuniac Springs, Florida. A man at Defuniac Springs, Florida, has called the Defuniak Springs Police Department not once, not twice, not eight times, not 18 times, not even 38 times, 58 times, and threatened to cook one of the officers and he was arrested on Tuesday. Officers reported that between February 27th and 28th, Brett Philip Gormley, who is 47 years old, who does not even live in Defuniak Springs, called the department not to report an emergency, but to criticize the communications staff and officers. It was also reported that during one instance, Gormley called and he said he was a chef and threatened to cook one of the officers. An arrest warrant was attained as Gormley was charged with two counts of harassing communications. An officer said they do not tolerate anyone who ties up emergency resources to harass staff and that their lines are for emergencies and legitimate assistance. Well, he's a chef and he's going to cook. The officer he's calling to. He's calling to complain about communications, but he's tying up the phone lines, not allowing people that actually do need to communicate to communicate. That makes so much sense. You know, sometimes I just don't know why, why I get some of these. I just. It makes me a little uncomfortable to talk about some of the things that I have to talk about on this show.

An Ohio mayor mayor has been arrested on voyeurism charges after he was caught on hidden camera smelling a teen girl's panties. Wesley Dingus, who is the top politician in the village of Butler, was arrested on February 13, a month after he entered the room of an underage girl and sniffed four different pairs of underwear. The victim, who police said was staying at the mayor's home, set up the camera because she suspected someone was rummaging through her personal belongings. And something tells me that when she set this camera up, she did not expect to find this. I mean, she expected to find something that wasn't good, but I don't think she expected what. It is unclear why the teen girl was living at the Dingus's home. Police also did not disclose how Dingus and the victim knew each other. She's actually a high school student. And the concealed camera also caught dingus, who was 48 years old, touching his groin area over his clothes as he handled the worn underwear. Investigators have explained that the incriminating footage was captured back on January 13, and the victim told police she received multiple motion alerts on her phone and later shared the video with the police. Investigators set up a meeting with Dingus, who later cancelled on the police on the advice of his attorney. Dingus appeared in court on Thursday, February 19, and pleaded not guilty to the charges and he was released after posting 10% of his $10,000 bond. Under the terms of his release, Dingus must wear a GPS monitor around his ankle and he must refrain from having any contact with the victim. Dingus has been mayor of Butler since 2022, when he took over the post after his predecessor resigned. Previously, he served as the president of Butler's Board of Commissioners. And then soon after that, Dingus was formally elected to a full term and as Butler's mayor, receiving 199 votes from the under 1,000 citizens who call the village home. This is actually Dingus second arrest in less than a year. In August of 2025, he was indicted on dereliction of duty falsification, an aggravated vehicular assault, after he mowed down a wanted criminal suspect with his car. Dingis was at a gas station to get a soda and Tobacco on July 11, 2025, when he spotted the man crossing the street. A man he knew was wanted for a parole violation. The man tried to flee, and Dingus hit the man with his car. And the suspect was detained by police and said that the mayor hit him with his car twice. Dingus entered a plea of not guilty in that case, which is still pending in court. The man, who violated his parole, was expected to recover from his injuries he sustained in the incident. If Dingus is convicted of the voyeurism charges, he faces up to a year in prison and fines totaling up to $2,500, which is definitely not enough, in my opinion. We got one more for the day. We're going to North Carolina. A North Carolina man was pulled over for speeding. Now, if I was doing something wrong, you can bet your bottom dollar that I am going to follow every traffic law out there. So, like, if I'm smuggling drugs, if I have kidnapped somebody, if I robbed a bank, whatever the case may be, I promise you my tail lights are going to work, my headlights are going to work, my blinkers are going to work. I'm not going to speed, I'm going to have both hands on the wheel. I won't be on the phone. I'm going to have my seatbelt on, all of the above. Well, this. Luckily, this North Carolina man felt like he was above the law, and he was pulled over for speeding. And inside his car, a sheriff's deputy found a teenage girl who had been missing for a month. On Sunday, March 8, a deputy with the Putnam County Sheriff's office in Florida pulled over a vehicle that was traveling at a high rate of speed on US 17 near US 17 south near Crescent City. In body cam footage provided by the sheriff's office, the driver identified. Identified himself as Joshua McGrath, who's 37 years old and he's from Charlotte. And when the deputy asked the young female passenger for identification, McGrath says, no, sir, that's my little cousin, and said that she was 16. When the deputy asked the passenger for her name, she said, huh Several times. Can I get your name? Huh? What's your name, ma'? Am? Huh? Huh? What? Several times before stating that her name was, in fact, Brandi Lewis. She then said she was born in 2013, which would make her obviously, at that time, 12 years old. And the passenger then gave the deputy two more false names and birth dates, causing him to be concerned for her welfare. The deputy had the girl sit in his patrol car where she told him her real name. And then upon a search, it was found that the teen was reported missing a month earlier from North Carolina. Authorities reached out to the teen's mother, who said she didn't know McGrath, she didn't know the man that her daughter was with, and that she had reported her daughter missing. On February 16, the deputy asked McGrath to step out of his car and question him about his connection to the teen. McGrath then changed his story and said, oh, she wasn't his cousin. Oh, no, no, no, she's not my cousin. Just like people were saying the other day. It was one of the, one of the submissions for the Dum Dum in the court segment. And someone said, those aren't my pants. Because, you know, when you're questioning someone, you got to, you know, pat Frisco for, for officer safety and, you know, you feel something on the pants. I've heard Woody tell this type of story many times. And you know, he pulls out, you know, he feels something in the person wearing the pants. It's like, oh, that's my lighter. And then he pats on another pocket. Oh, well, that, you know, that's my keys. And he knows. And then he gets to the back pocket and he, you know, pulls out like a little bitty something. He's like, oh, no, these aren't my pants. Anyway, so all of a sudden she is not McGrath's cousin. She is just a friend. And when the deputy asked McGrath how old he was, he told him he is 37. And she said, the deputy said, so you're 37 and you're friends with a 16 year old girl. McGrath then told the deputy that he thought the girl was 19 and that they were in Florida to play gambling games. Deputies searched the vehicle and found 19 counterfeit $100 bills, synthetic marijuana, actual marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Deputies contacted the Department of Children and Families to take custody of the teen until she could be reunited with her mother. And McGrath was arrested and charged with interference in child custody, synthetic marijuana possession, possession of counterfeit currency, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and possession of drug paraphernalia. He's racked up those charges. He was taken into Putnam County Jail and held on a $9,000 bond. And the investigation is ongoing. And we don't know if he has an attorney yet, but thank goodness he was speeding and thought he was above the law. So we. Who knows what that little girl went through. Sorry about the. The bird. Who knows what that little girl went through in that period of time? And I hope that she gets the help that she, that she needs. I mean, I'm assuming and I probably shouldn't assume, but it's safe to assume that she went through some trauma and I hope she gets help. Well, that's it for March 14th of 2026. And thank y' all for sticking around and listening to me. And I want to thank, we have, we have some new listeners and we thank our new listeners for coming and listening to us and showing up every day.

And our new, I can't say our Woody's new series, what Happened to Madison is I'm just going to be honest with you. It is eerie. I am sending pictures to my children and their boyfriends or girlfriends and I am sending them all of the information so that they have it. This guy allegedly is scary, doing some bad things. You know, girls are going missing and girls are being chased. And it's a scary one, guys. And we really, really need all of the tips that you can give in this case. And we are very grateful for all of what the evidence room is doing for justice for Haley because it is really putting pieces of the puzzle together that needed to be put together to charge Brooks. And we thank everybody that has donated to the GoFundMe. And we thank our new sponsor, Big J's Barbecue at 10808 Highway 67 or Plank Road in Clinton, Louisiana. And today they have live music.

You will not regret it. And please tell them that real life, real crime sent you. And who knows what you'll get if you do that. We don't know. But we've already had people that are patreons and convicts that have reached out to purchase some of their barbecue sauce. And when Woody gets back, we are working on something fun to do with some of the barbecue sauce and the seasoning from big Js. And we hope to set up some sort of event at Big J's where you can come and see, come and see us. That would be lots and lots of fun. But again, enjoy your Saturday. Thank you so very much, convicts and Patreon. You have received episode three of what Happened to Madison and let us know what you think about that.

Host: Cindy Overton (solo for this episode), with occasional contributions and pre-recorded transitions from Woody Overton
Main Theme:
A riveting roundup of recent and historical true crime cases, ranging from infamous murders and vigilante justice to bizarre acts of animal cruelty and public officials’ misconduct. The episode maintains the signature blend of the Real Life Real Crime podcast: dark, sometimes gruesome, often laced with the hosts’ candid, unfiltered, and occasionally wry commentary.
“People’s mental health has always been an issue, and it definitely was not spoken about in 1938 like it is today.”
[10:46 – 17:40]
[22:25 – 26:02]
“Out of all of the things you could do, why do that? Obviously, that’s not something that just happened. Somebody deliberately did that.” (24:09)
[26:09 – 29:45]
[29:45 – 34:25]
[34:25 – 39:21]
“If he has a single violation while he’s out of jail...he is going to be remanded without bail in this case, she warned.” (38:44)
[40:17 – 43:10]
[46:23 – 48:40]
[48:41 – 55:57]
[56:10 – 61:00]
On historical crime and mental health:
“People’s mental health has always been an issue...Now we just hear about it more, you know? It’s reported more. We have instant, instant information.” (03:30) — Cindy
On the Omaima Nelson case:
“I’m sorry I dismembered him.” (10:51) — Quoting Omaima Nelson
“You don’t fully understand until you have one—and I think that is the case with Big J’s. So with that being said, I’m going to get straight down to news...” (09:50) — Cindy, blending a food metaphor with the dark theme
On vigilante justice:
“You do not go get two guns and just start shooting them...that’s not the right thing to do.” (33:49) — Cindy
On criminals caught by basic mistakes:
“If I was doing something wrong...I promise you my tail lights are going to work, my headlights are going to work, my blinkers are going to work. I’m not going to speed...” (46:50) — Cindy
If you want gruesome true crime, unique stories, and advocacy for cold case justice, this episode showcases exactly why Real Life Real Crime has a passionate, participating audience. From infamous murderers and twisted motives to crazy criminals caught by their own idiocy and heartfelt appeals for listener action, this episode has it all.
